Eminently Suitable, Part II: The Suit Today

  • College of William & Mary 5300 Discovery Park Boulevard, Room 136 Williamsburg, VA, 23188 United States (map)

In last year’s course, we examined how the modern suit of clothes developed in the 19th century as a classical work of art. In this sequel, we will summarize that historical development and look more closely at changing attitudes toward the suit in our own lifetimes. We will ask what a suit really is, how it is made, where it is going, and what it all means. Woman or man, if you have ever wondered why you feel different in a suit of clothes, this course is addressed to you. Registration required.
